Trying to work out why people seem to be against Wilko, he does not pick the team nor the tactics and i think he has come in for some abuse thats caused by the manager being inept.
For all we know he could be an excellent assistant or even manager but like i said its not him who tells the team how to play.
I would be happy for him to take the reigns till the end off the season if Slade does the honorable thing.

I await the huge amount of red crosses.

Well Wilko is guilty by association at the very least to helping serve up an unpopular style of football yielding mediocre results.

I've often thought the same thing.

If/when Slade gets the boot Wilko might be a good short term replacement.  He's probably just as p1ssed off as we are with the tactics.

Let's just look at the players who've come in on Wilko's suggestion;

Kelly, Hooper, Killip. DJ is the only decent one

I don't want Wilko allowed to spend any money or having an input on signings when his first recommendation this season was Sam Kelly. Kelly wouldn't cut it at NL level.

Have you seen how bad we are in the final 3rd, our finishing (or lack of) is terrible.

Slade won't go for ages and neither will Wilco.

Because he is responsible for coaching the strikers,not exactly doing a great job is he,in fact you have to ask what exactly does he do.

Surely Hooper was Slade's call since he was training with us for a few weeks prior to him offering him a 2 year deal. Wilko might have recommended we have a look at him but RS made a call after seeing him every day for a 2/3 weeks.

I’ve always got the impression that Wilko is an arrogant @rse. I was at the Winterton Rangers pre-season game and he was in charge of a GTFC XI and witnessed him berating and screaming at a young linesman all game as if he were Jose Mourinho. I felt embarrassed for him.


Up The Mariners!
